Question: brakes thumping

Question

Visitor, Raleigh, NC, April 05, 2010, 06:48

My front brakes were replaced about 8000 miles ago with no problem until now when I try and stop they thump alot until I come to a stop. The higher speed I'm at the worse the issue.

    Sounds like you may have warped rotors. I'd go back to the place that replaced them recently and have them inspected. If they are warped, the shop should help you understand why after so little time.
